I remember this film mainly because all three of us Canadians in the office of MCS in Dallas, TC had to see it, and I mashed my finger in my desk drawer just before I left for the show.

By the nature of the job, porn stars were very hard hit.
The list of gay male porn stars felled by AIDS is as voluminous as that of the USS Arizona Memorial, but I think only one prominent female performer (Lisa de Leeuw) suffered that fate.

I believe the film is a toned-down, loosely-based fictionalization of the life of the late John C. Holmes (who died of AIDS), the famous XXX star who was an institution in the 1970s and early 1980s.
